Location

Enjoy the local area

Musandam is a landscape dominated by rugged mountains, hidden villages in wadis and, in Six Senses Zighy Bay’s case, the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Oman. In such a dramatic setting, nothing about your stay here will be ordinary: indeed, even your entrance to the resort can be made by scenic four-wheel drive, speed boat or by paragliding in – 007 style. Choose a slow-life philosophy by hopping on a dhow cruise around the coastal fjords, indulging in locally-inspired spa treatments, or watching the stars of the silver screen under the stars at our beach cinema. For those in search of a little more adventure, the Musandam Peninsula is the perfect natural playground for adrenaline junkies of all ages – from to diving and snorkelling in the sea, hiking through the mountains and gliding through the skies. With over 70 experiences on offer, the resort’s experiences team will be on hand to make sure that there’s always something new to try during your stay.
